three reasone, at least for this cowboy.
first, a singel action sixgun is VERY simple to use, cock the hammer and shoot, no screwing around with a gazzilon saftys.
second, a revolver offers much more raw power than any gun out sidwe od a Desert Eagle .50 AE
third, accuracy, a semi auto is more or less "battle Accurate" at 25 or 30 yards, but a .45 Colt has the potentail to be pushed over a hundred yards!
plus, for me a double action wiz bang high cap 9mm will NEVER ride in this cowboys holster, i stick with the old 3 screw Ruger Blackhawk. .45 Colt, .44 Mag, and .44-40 Wincheser...all my favorites
however, for raw, bret force, the top hnadgun "MEGA MAGNUMS" are:
The .454 Casull (super powerful .45 colt)
.475 linebrough
.480 ruger (more or less the same as the .475...i woder if there interchangable?)
.500 linebrough magunm (.45-70 brass blown out to .50 cal and trimmed back)
.500 linebrough Magnum Maximum (full sized .45-70 brass blowen out, but not cut back)'
.500 Smith & Wession Magnum (the "new" most poerful hanggun in the world)
there is i iagin many more, but these are the ones i rember off the top of my head, the .44 mag, .45 colt, .41 mag, .357 mag ect. are excluded since they are not in my "mega mag" mentality of catagorrizing calibers
any one of these brutes WILL turn anything in north america or africa inside out and upside down, especily the .50 caliber cartrages.
